Not too fussy about fit? Select from our standard sizes.
Your shoulders are not super broad and do not spole down a lot. Most people have standard shoulders. If you are not sure , select this.
Your shoulders slope down at an angle
Your shoulder angle is very straight (close to a 90 degree), or you have broad shoulders
The collar measurement should be taken from the outer edge of the buttonhole to the center of the collar button when the collar is spread flat.
Measure straight across the chest from one armpit to the other. Do not stretch apart the shirt when taking the measurement.
The stomach measurement (also known as waist) should be taken across the width of the shirt at the narrowest point.
The hips measurement should be taken accross the bottom of the shirt at the end of side seams. Do not stretch the shirt apart too much when taking this measurement.
Measure from the seam at the top of the shirt down the edge at the bottom of the shirt. This measurement is normally longer than your sleeve length.
The sleeve length measurement should be taken from the shoulder/sleeve seam along the upper edge of the sleeve to the edge of the cuff.
Measure down the short sleeve, from the shoulder seam down to the edge of the sleeve.
The shoulder width measurement should be taken between the shoulders at the sleeve seam.
The arm hole measurement should be taken as a straight line from the shoulder/sleeve seem to the lower corner where the sleeve meets the body.
Measure straight across the bicep, and start 3 inches down from the armpit seam.
The cuff measurement should be taken when the cuff is spread flat. Measure from the outer edge of the cuff button hole to the center of the button.
Measure across the cuff at the end of the short sleeve, as shown in the photo. We will make the finished shirt to this size.
